now it's time to govern. what's more important, what senator graham is talking about, the president has to start talk being spending cuts. we've already had two months of the new fiscal year. we're $292 billion in the deficit. there's some interesting numbers through there. revenues have increased $30 billion. they've gone up 10%. why that number is important is the president is able to raise the rates that he wants, he'll only collect $31 billion for the entire year, just on the rates. but the real problem is spending has gone up 16%, more than $87 billion. so we've got to start looking at, where are we going to cut spending? he wants to increase taxes to keep spending. we'll be in another mess, next year asking the same questions we're asking today. >> a tax increase only buys you a limited amount of time as long as the spending is more than that's coming in. why is he campaigning? he's not able to convince anyone on the republican side. i wonder, for all the reports you read about republicans being divided
